Robert Crooks teaches composition and also literary, film, and communication theory at Bentley College. An associate professor of English, he has incorporated service-learning projects into a number of different courses and has presented a paper on Service-Leaming, Composition, and Cultural Studies at CCCC. Ann Watters is a lecturer in the English department at Stanford University, where she has directed the Program in Writing and Critical Thinking and currently serves as associate director.

She has co-authored and edited five books, including Writing for Change and Guide for Change, two textbooks for college composition courses that integrate service-learning.
